Attendance in lecture and laboratory is expected to successfully
complete the course. Missed assignments, laboratories,
quizzes, or finals will not be made up. All assignments
must be turned in on time. Keep returned assignments and record
of your grade throughout the semester.

Your instructor will give you a tentative schedule for the lecture
tests. Additional homework or classroom assignments may be
given by an instructor; the point value will then be added
to the total points for the class. In lab or lecture, you
will be given at least 12 quizzes or assignments throughout the
semester unless otherwise stated by your instructor. Your
top 10 scores will be used to determine your total out of a possible
100 points. Be prepared for a quiz or assignments each session.

Our goal is to keep a challenging, relaxed, learning environment
that enhances each students potential. It is each students
responsibility to utilize class time, speak softly during group
activities, and address others in the class in both a polite and
professional manner. Also, cell phones are not to ring or
be out during class or laboratory time.

If you feel you need any special accommodations because of a
documented disability or have other concerns, please contact counseling
at 545-3060 and your instructor.

Synopsis: Brief summary of current articles. Each
synopsis should be at least 20 complete typed sentences. Summarize
and include your opinion of the article while indicating its relevance
to this course. You must clearly identify the article by title,
journal name, date, volume # and page #. A copy of the
article must be turned in with each typed synopsis. Your instructor
will provide dates for completion.

Other: In addition to lecture tests, laboratory exercises
and a comprehensive final, your end of the semester grade may include
individual research, group projects, participation, quizzes, assignments,
online assignments, and service learning activities. Your
instructor will give you more information, guidelines, and dates
later in the semester.

1. If you are absent, late, or have to leave early for any reason,
it is your responsibility to find out what material, handouts or
assignments were missed. However, if points were missed, you
will not have the opportunity to make them up. You must be
present for lecture final and in class activities or scores will
result in a zero.

result in a zero), turn assignments in on time (beginning of class
when collected by instructor), use pencil on lab exercises, practice
lab safety and use equipment with care.

3. Students will not receive points for late or missed work.
If given, make-up lecture exam (limit 1) will be penalized

on the day of your return.
